Coach Edmonson stated that he Was
well pleased with the work , of his
cinder p«th fish and that be had all
the confidence in the world In their
ability to win point* this year. *
Several of the records made were
worthy of College time and ia spite
of the lack of veteran material this
same squad 'should causa lots of
trouble on Texas tracks this year.
With 36 points tx> his credit, O.
Frazier easily led the fit Ids in in
dividual scoring and his all-arvurd
work was a pretty thing to watch.
He seemed at home in both track and
field events altho hia beid perform
ances were on the hurdle*. Frazier

in school and ought to make a high
